Finally got around to trying this after months of putting it off. Full transparency the reason I kept not wanting to brew it up was mostly because the coffee note smelled unpleasantly funky to me – a bit like gas station coffee…
Honestly, I don’t think I needed to be as worried as I was though. I still didn’t love the blend but that was honestly mostly just because it was so insanely oily. I just had tons of full beads of oil floating on the surface of the steeped tea as I was drinking. The flavour was just fine though. A bit more of a chocolate covered almond vibe, in my opinion. Darker chocolate notes (ie. not creamy) despite a more thin body/liquor. It did still taste of coffee, but more of a hint like what you’d get in a Coffee Crisp. Yeah, that’s a good comparison actually. A Coffee Crisp but with almonds and dark chocolate…
